Agriculture
Staying sustainable
Less irrigation = Sustained soil fertility
Our permanent crops require water to ensure a qualitative fruit yield. Hence, the higher priority is to irrigate rather too much instead of too little. However, we often forget that watering our permanent crops too much does not only lead to higher costs but also to broken soils. It is our responsibility to water our permanent crops efficiently so the generations after us have similar conditions to perform agriculture – without compromising with fruit quality and quantity.
Smart Farming for your permanent crops
We help you manage your plantation more efficiently. With a better understanding of your permanent crops, resources can be used efficiently to increase yield. For example, our data will show you if and when your plantation needs irrigation or frost or infection protection measures to increase fruit yield in both quantity and quality.
We give you centralized management for your plantation. Understand your plantation and plan ahead based on the health of your permanent crops to secure financial freedom.
Use tree-specific data to determine how to make irrigation resource-efficient to prevent drought stress.
Plan and set your frost protection to the minute.Understand at what environmental conditions, specifically temperatures your tree will react to frost so you can respond early with appropriate action.
Detect irregularities in the water balance of your permanent crops with real-time data. An alarm lets you react quickly to safeguard your trees with appropriate measures.
Use the full potential of Treesense Cloud to document your activities such as the irrigation. Map your farm and include professional data science dashboards in your daily tasks.
Currently, we are only using weather forecasts to plan the irrigation of our vineyards. However, The most critical period is when the grapes are already ripe, mostly around August when the droughts are extreme lately. Using sensors to improve the water balance to ultimately have more qualitative wine will be crucial since water is rare already.
